Welcome to the Test Drive Meme for

escordvi! Anyone can participate in the test drive, regardless of invite eligibility. Just keep in mind that only those who have had their invitations approved by the mods can actually reserve on October 25 and apply on November 1st. Our EMP/ATP can be found here.

Palace of the Dead prompts are worth 6 points. All other threads are worth the normal 2 points.

For your toplevel, please include the following: Character Name | Canon | Armada Choice | TDM (IF TDMING). Current players can use the same header, just without the "TDM" label. We do require those who are TDMin'g to include the label so other players can distinguish between others.

For everyone's convenience, TDM threads can be carried over in game if you wish! If you are still unsure which armada to place your character, you can play it a bit loose and vague in the TDM and make retroactive changes if you carry over the threads. The log itself is set to cover starting from October 25th until the end of the month. Characters will appear at random intervals during this time rather than all at once, so players have some more flexibility on how much more adjusted they are for someone else.

Players are free to utilize the MANTA Board for additional non-festival themed prompts.

If you have any question about the TDM, comment here. If you have questions about the game in general, please comment to the Game Info.

[The video is of a rocky shoreline, under a grey autumn sky. A small handful of the demon horses can be seen grazing on washed up seaweed.]

[Davrin slowly lowers the camera back down, turning it to face himself. Both he and Assan the griffon, are perched on a couple rocks higher up. Out of immediate view of the horses.]

I know we're supposed to be gathering clippings from these things but... call me crazy.

[Assan lifts his head from where he'd had it balanced on his foreclaws, looking skeptical.]

- Not you. [Then back to the camera.] Anybody tried maybe... taming one of them?

[They're no halla, but maybe it'd be a good idea to have a horse around for land-based travel.]

Salutations.

There are two missing individuals that I have been attempting to track down for sometime. Please advise if you have seen them.

[IMG ATTCH: surge.png]

This is Surge. It would be difficult to miss her, I imagine. Nonetheless, please advise if you have seen her. She is loud, stubborn, and generally unapologetic for her actions. For good or for ill.

[IMG ATTCH: kit.png]

This is Kitsunami, otherwise called Kit. He is much more quiet, but rarely away from Surge's side.

Please advise if you have seen either recently. Thank you.

Espio out.

Who: Azul Ashengrotto, and YOU!!!!

Status: Open

Where: Mostro Lounge

What: As previously announced, the Mostro Lounge is holding a celebration for Halloween/Ghoul's Moon for the month of October! Stop on by and take part in deals on treats, activities, and the costume contest while you're able!

Warnings: One of the prompts contains potions that will induce temporary effects to whoever drinks them, but these effects are meant to be harmless. Will add anything else here if something comes up in any threads that require it, but this is primarily a log to allow creating your own starter for festivities at the Lounge and tagging out to each other as desired!

( Won't you take part in our spectral soiree? )
